thankful wasn’t able to finanlize a plan

thankful wasn't able to finanlize a planI guess I mentioned it before that I planned to transform my little garden where I will make a small pond. Well, thankfully that didn’t happen. I realized there are lots of things to do and to buy just like a pond skimmer, filters and pumps. It’s not that I don’t like it, but buying those items now is impractical. Why? We just change our mind.

We have a new plan that is hubby is planning to go abroad while I return to my parents. We are not really separating because we no longer like each other. It is due to financial reasons. He will look for a better job and I will just follow after he settles. That means both of us will leave the house. Then, what will happen to the pond when we are gone. The new renters or the owner will benefit from it, not us.

So, I am thankful I don’t have the money at the time I finalize my pond plan, or else I was able to buy it. But, that doesn’t mean I let go of the idea because I certainly won’t do that. I’ll just postpone it for now and wait for the right time.

thinking of vending machine business

thinking of vending machine businessThese past few months, I have been feeling depressed over our situation. I am used to having hubby helped me in our daily needs. But, when he begins his training, the situation starts to get shaky; couple that to the pressure of our huge debts from his surgery last December to his sister, who keeps on collecting payments.

Almost every day I want to cry as I get too tired doing everything. I know hubby wants to help me, but his schedule doesn’t permit him. I don’t know how to raise huge amount of money to pay for everything. Good thing I was able to get through that stage. Although we still have debts, I no longer feel too sad or depressed.

Anyway, since we are still struggling to pay our debts. We thought about venturing into vending machines business. I think it is the perfect business as it is a 100% cash business. It also allows me to continue with my life because I can set my own hours for this one. Other than that, I no longer need to worry about paying additional employees salary, rent for an office or additional utilities fees, and advertising. Vending machines do their own advertising.

It is indeed a sound business venture. And I am excited to learn more about it.

my love for plants

my love for plantsIt’s been six months since I made a small garden. That was the exact time I could remember I started to love plants. The move is inspired by my farming online games.

It is true that I love playing virtual games. But, I got tired thinking that I kept on playing and not getting anything in the future. So, I decide to transfer my attention to a real life garden where I can get benefits rather than waste my time to virtual plants.

As of now, the plants are already fully grown. Actually, I’m already using most of it in some of the dishes I cook. And they remain live and others are still bearing fruits despite the harsh condition we are experiencing.

Anyway, since I feel I have a green thumb, I am motivated to get indoor plants, for a change. I think it would be a great house decoration and a very refreshing one too. All I have to do now is to choose the spots that need embellishments. After that, is the only time I can choose the kind of plants suitable for a particular area. For that process, I might need to get hubby’s help. That way we will be both happy with the kind of plants we will choose. But, I think he would agree that the one in the picture is perfect even if I still don’t have a spot for that.

exciting beach vacation

exciting beach vacationLast February 19, I said that there is a good chance of heavy rains, but it turns out to be very little despite the super dark clouds. After that, no rain ever pours which dry the land that increases the hot temperature we feel every day. For that matter, almost all families in town is thinking about going to a beach family vacation other than going to winter places. It is the best way they think to cool down.

As for me, going to the beach is the best thing to do. Actually, I’m currently thinking of the secluded white-sand beaches on the Mexican Riviera Maya. This place doesn’t only offer cool beach waters, there is more to that.

Well, I’ve been writing about this for a long time especially KARISMA. Most of the resorts of Karisma offer elite level of service, luxurious accommodations, invigorating entertainment and the classy snap-to service. Let’s not forget the food. Karisma’s gourmet-level cuisine is served in sleek and sensual sit-down locales and fashion-forward bars. Foods are cooked that meets the standards of the best restaurants, prepared in a way that will excite and surprise the senses. Mmmm, imagining about it makes me super excited.

a good cup of coffee

a good cup of coffeeWhat is the better way to spend a long gloomy afternoon, than to sip a deliciously blended hot coffee? Well, that’s what I do after sweeping the lawn from lots of dry leaves. Supposedly I am going to drop some cards on my blogger friends today, but with the dark clouds on the way of my internet signal that would be impossible. I can’t do anything else so I decided to drink coffee while I’m comparing the home insurance quotes I get a week ago.

Why would I do this? Well, if ever a house would be the biggest investment that I will make in my lifetime. Insurance is one way of securing that property in the event of a disaster or someone being injured at my residence.

Some might say it is too early to do it. But, it is an opportunity to choose the best insurance that I need in the future. It will help me secure the ones that offers good benefits, but will not kill me in terms of costs because saving money is my top priority. The lesser premium to pay, but the higher the benefits to receive: the better. I will not get this one without spending some time. That’s why the earlier the better it is for me.

my friend’s training for a new career

my friend's training for a new careerAfter doing the things I mentioned earlier, I decided to visit facebook to feed my fish in fishville games. Before doing so, I noticed one of my favorite friends is online. I give him a buzz as I haven’t heard anything about him for a long time and I truly missed him.

He gladly replied to me and our conversation started. I’ve learned his been very busy with his energy auditor training. I’m a little dumbfounded as I don’t know what that is. But, I did not show it of course. He might laugh at me like he always does. I just continue our casual conversation and end it after 30 minutes.

Before I sign out and call it a day, I searched the web for energy auditor overview. Good thing I easily found ever blue energy site. Ah Energy auditors are the ones who conduct energy audits of buildings, building systems and process systems. Their tasks are to identify and prioritize energy saving measures, make recommendations, collect and analyze energy usage, educate customers on energy efficiency or answer questions on topics such as the costs of running household appliances, calculate potential for energy savings and so much more.

By the way energy audit is an inspection, survey and analysis of energy flows for energy conservation in a building, process or system to reduce the amount of energy input into the system without negatively affecting the output.

oversleeping again

I already feel a little groggy when I wake up early this morning. It continues to be that way until my eyes finally give up. I fell asleep at around 11:30 am in my couch in front of the television and my laptop. My intention is to take power naps only. I even set my alarm at 12 so that I can eat my lunch. But, I wake up at two in the afternoon, which means I overslept again. Probably this is due to the multivitamins I take two days today.

Well, I can’t make up for the lost of time. I’ll just continue what needs to be done such as dropping entrecards and reading the quick weight loss I found before my eyes shut on me. I also forget to eat my lunch. I feel it’s quite late to do that. Good thing I have cookies that I can munch to get rid of my growling tummy.

such a bad timing!

such a bad timing!Not again! I have a pimple in my temple! Ahhhh Why in the world is this? It is such a bad timing. I have so many get together to attend this week. Having this bump will ruin everything. I just want to cry. Good thing I still have two more days to fix the problem.

There is only one solution that is to purchase acne lotions that heal pimples quickly. I have this one brand before, but I can no longer find it in the shelves. That leaves me no choice, but to get another brand. Before jumping to that product, might as well use the web for more information and reviews.

I can’t afford to make a mistake now as there is no time for that. That’s why I have to be certain if the product is effective or not. Hopefully I get it right.

my inquisitive character

my inquisitive characterBasically, I am an inquisitive person. Every time an idea is thrown at me, I won’t stop until I thoroughly understand it. That’s most of the reason hubby get irritated at me as every time he communicates his daily activities, I have so many follow up questions.

Anyway, I’ve talked about gold bullions a lot of time. I’ve even mentioned that it is time to buy gold bullion. But, I soon realized I’m not yet ready and I need more time to understand how it works and how I will earn from it. Other than that I still need more money to finance the purchase.

But, that doesn’t stop me from hunting news related to it, if I have time of course. Yesterday since I’m too lazy and slow to do anything, I figured to check the latest buzz. I’ve learned that the Capital Market Supervisory Board approve the Gold exchange-traded funds (ETFs) to penetrate the Thailand stock market. They agreed last month to permit two different types of gold ETFs into the market namely ETF feeder fund investing in an overseas gold fund and an ETF directly investing in gold bullion in the local market.

Hmmm, that’s seems new and too near in my country. It means it calls for more information. But, that would be in the future. For now, I have to finish some of my pending tasks. Double time!
